red flags that caught my attention. He's a hero while she's the whackoslut. But in defense of the idea that she's a whackoslut, http://ricks.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2011/01/13/travels_with_paula_i_a_time_to_build

I think they're both shills and are trying to cover their asses because they got busted for that and copped to an affair as a distraction. And she's not copped to the affair since hasn't made a statement and nobody knows where she or her family are... maybe a rendition event of some kind not ordered from the WH but the HR_Rs? I think they were exposed by somebody and now it's cover up time. Petraeus isn't saying much, all he said was an "extramarital affair" and hasn't disclosed who that was with. I think it's all a distraction, even though some of the banter is amusing, the facts are facts and many facts are missing at this point.

I wonder where the Broadwell clan is. Are they house guests of the defeated candidate or the alleged victim of the nasty emails? Camping out with HamRove? Or "disappearing" as we speak? The more I hear, the more suspicious it seems.

This is more than a garden-variety affair. Monica wasn't privy to Clinton's e-mails, e.g. WinkyDink Nov 2012 #8
